On this episode of The Reckoning Live, the panel delves into the harmful effects of coded language like 'sassy,' 'zesty,' and 'no Diddy,' which perpetuate veiled homophobia and toxic masculinity. The conversation is sparked by Dr. Deion Hawkins' article, 'Sassy Is The New Gay: How Language Perpetuates Veiled Homophobia And Toxic Masculinity In The Black Community,' which was inspired by a viral tweet critiquing men who cook. The panel explores how these labels create impossible standards for Black men and how they impact Black queer men. The discussion expands to cover personal experiences and strategies for unlearning toxic traits.
